Do any of you guys paint your own jeeps after you get them built?

I was looking for ideas on green colors for the body and wanted to know if anyone has any experience with painting engine parts or has any pictures to share with body paint jobs and or engine part paint jobs

i don't bother with engine paint, but i have painted my trail rig with tremclad blue. i followed the "50 dollar paint job" tip that can be found on the internet. it turned out great, but that was 10 years ago or more. it's about time for another job. maybe this summer. i may spray it now that i have an HVLP gun, but we will see. the roller job turned out fantastic, and was very easy, once i had prep all done.

I paint all my own stuff. The key is the prep work before actually painting. A good online source to look at paint colors is tcp global. They also sell pretty much anything auto body and paint related
